Isigaba sesi-3 – Iqondwa kanjani incazelo yegama elithi “clearance”

clearance: ibanga elifushane emoyeni phakathi kwezingxenye ezimbili ze-conductive noma phakathi kwengxenye ye-conductive kanye ne-indawo efinyelelekayo. Ukuhlanzeka kuwumqondo obaluleke kakhulu. Ukuze siqonde imvume, sidinga ukuphinda sikusho ukuthi akukho lutho oluvalwe ngokuphelele, futhi umoya ungaqhuba nogesi. Lapho i-voltage iphezulu kakhulu, i-current izoqhutshwa emoyeni. Ukushaywa kombani ngesikhathi sokuduma kwezulu kuyisibonelo esivamile sombani oshaya emoyeni. I-voltage yombani iphezulu kakhulu,…
